It’s pretty easy to know how things are going in the new Obama Administration these days. One only has to watch Foxy Noise and other such wingnuttery media and see how much they are squealing.
They seem to be squealing like the proverbial stuck pig these days, so things must be looking exceedingly good.
Last night we were watching our usual evening dose of the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He was kind enough to show us footage of some of our favorite douche bags.
First on the list was that scion of all things knee-jerk logical, Rush Limbaugh. Old Rush is mighty pissed that a good many Republicans are talking about how they consider President Obama their president too, and wish him well.
Now Rush doesn’t care for that type of traitorous talk! According to him, Mr. Obama is hell bent to turn this fine country into a socialist haven. Any respectable American must, therefore pray and hope that he fails. Yes folks, you heard that right.
Let’s examine the logic. If my Obama succeeds, might that suggest that his policies are actually good? Isn’t that the definition of success–that which works? Soooo, Limbaugh tells us that he is against any policy, even if it is a good one, if it means sacrificing his ideology of ????? I guess that would the that the country be devoted to keeping the rich rich, and the poor poor, and never the twain should meet.
Not to be outdone in wingnuttery, our very own Sean Hannity weighs in with his delightfully warped sense of history. We needed support the President at all he claims, since we already know that socialism is a failure. And of course, Obama is turning this country into a socialist regime just as fast as his pen can sign executive orders.
No quarter is being given at all. Of course Sean said he would be fair, and give the man a chance. That lasted all of 24 hours. He’s moving toward policies that Hannity doesn’t like, ipso facto, they are socialist, therefore they are doomed. Again the logic is just so there.
And what nut fest would be complete without the indomitable Billo the Clown? Billo some years ago, after the re-election of one Dubya Bush, said we were all required to give the guy the benefit of the doubt. This meant that we mustn’t criticize him until his policies had had a fair opportunity to be put in place.
It seems the Foxy Dunce has come up with a new theory now. It seems we are to be raising Cain against Mr. Obama. Why? Oh, just cuz he is shutting down Gitmo, and thus imperiling all of the US of A. The theory goes thusly.
Those prisoners have to go somewhere. Not all will be turned over to their respective countries. Those that are not, and are not so obviously innocent as to be released, must be lodged in various penal institutions within the US.
That’s it. I guess we are to conclude that the US is incapable of housing really dangerous people, which should come as a huge shock to America, who leads the world in incarcerating folks. There are of course a few escapees every year, but for the most part their are lodged in minimal security situations. I guess Billo things that the military is incapable of keeping them locked in military prisons.
Apparently the same concerns for the Cuban population is non-existent.
Isn’t it fun to visit the crazy logic world of Billo, Sean, and Rush? Scrambles your brains and makes you a moron. Or it may just save you a lot of reading about what’s going on in the Obama administration. If they say bad, well, it means, logically speaking of course, that things are good.
Stay tuned for tomorrow. Obama is giving our aid groups the ability to offer abortion and contraception to those who are the recipients of our aid initiatives worldwide again. That will get them riled up for sure. Oh you darned liberal heathens!
